Fundraising efforts of the Littleport Lions Club were praised at their annual charter meal.
Members of the group enjoyed a Sunday lunch at the High Flyer, in Ely, to mark a jam-packed year.
The Lions and their guests, who included New Century Lions, were also joined by Mayor Mike Rouse.
He also spoke about fundraising for the mayor's charity and praised the Lions for all their "valuable work in the community".
Club member Lillian, was awarded Lion of the Year by the president Michael Stares.
This was for all her hard work as the organiser, promoter and distributor of the 'Message in a Bottle' programme.
This initiative is where members of the public are given a specially designed bottle to store medical information at home for paramedics to easily access in an emergency, which is funded by the local Lions club.
